COOKIES…I <3 COOKIES!

When i first cheekily asked Jay from yourmma.tv for a free sample of protein I expected him to offer me a mouthfull of his man protein.

Thankfully however Jay is not a cunt and a couple of days later this lovely box of treats turned up-

In the box was a selection of White Chocolate Almond and Double Chocolate Chip protein cookies.

First off lets look at the facts.

Per 75g:                                                                       

White Chocolate Almond Flavour 
Energy: 320kcal

Double Chocolate Chip Flavour          
Energy: 315kcal
Protein: 37.5g
Carbohydrate: 19.25g
(of which sugars): 7.21g

37.5G of protein per cookie! That’s a lot of protein all while being slightly easier on the carbs compared to a lot of similar products i’ve seen on the market.

The cookie itself is quite a substantial size and weight and proved to be very filling. I shared out the samples to get feedback from a few people and most struggled to finish in one sitting,except me however I am an experienced cookie eater and renowned greedy bastard.

This became my staple breakfast for the duration of the trial

breakfast of champions

After having this spectacular concoction at 10am,I was training for an hour and coaching some mental marine dudes for 2 hours. By the time the session ended I still wasn’t really that hungry,normally i’m the first one across the road to the cafe to get fed. Testament to the filling properties of the cookies i reckon

Taste wise I really enjoyed both flavours. The white chocolate one tastes a lot like battenburg cake,never a bad thing and the chocolate one….well tastes like a chocolate protein bar.

They are quite chewy but not to the point you’ll break your teeth, if anything it stops me stuffing it down my throat at a breakneck speed. 

I could wax lyrical about how good they taste however I feel this video says more than i ever could

These cookies would be a great meal to have when dieting and you don’t have time to prepare a proper dinner or as a replacement for a protein shake post workout however at 315 calories per cookie don’t get too addicted to them.

I personally found them to be a great lazy breakfast or food on the go when coaching and training a lot.

If kind fellows from myprotein.com wants to send me anymore of these cookies as a thanks for the favourable review you can find me at www.twitter.com/hurricane_dnft
